Homestead Railway Clock

For this Homestead Railway Clock,The timber is River Redgum, including the burl veneer behind the pendulum. The joinery is mortise and tenon with through tenons wedged with contrasting Lighter timber. If you look closely at the bottom left of the clock frame You just get a glimpse of this. It is finished with an oil-based Poly, and buffed with wax. The clock was Done on the lathe and finished with Shellac.

excellent as always. I am intrigued by the circular frame around the clock.. Impressive

hmmm I have a small pocket watch (probably my gr-grandfather’s, again) ... right now it’s just sitting on a shelf but maybe it would be interesting to display it in a wall-clock casing… can I do it? anything is possible.

thanks for posting this piece, Don (and I might be asking you for some advice on the “how” to create my idea).
